Hi All,
Just an update to let you know that Caden now weighs 1.77kg!!! Can you believe how "big" he's getting! He's also been upgraded to the closed incubator, so he's in his baby-grows now. He's so peaceful, just sleeping to preserve his energy! We're very proud.
On Saturday I was surprized with a stork-tea at Cafe Decor. It was so amazing having so many people I care for in one room. Caden got spoiled rotten with plenty of beautiful gifts! He's such a lucky boy to have so many wonderful people in his life! Thank you, thank you, thank you to everybody for giving my boy such amazing presents. We appreciate it from the bottom of our hearts! Also a big big thank you to Anja for organizing the entire thing. You did an amazing job and I think everybody had a good time, I know I definitely did!
I am on maternity leave now, yay! Going to spend the week getting Caden's room ready for when he finally comes home. There's still so much to do!!!
Have a good week!

Auntie Nettie has promised you a milkshake on our breakfast (guess we will have to shake mommy around so that she can have milkshake for you) as I just won the daily weight gain again. They forget that your dad and uncle Brendon were just as small and I can still remember ± how much they gained on a daily basis on their mamaroni juice. Praise God for all His wonderful care. You are doing so well my angel. Mommy is looking extra good and sparkling not to talk about the excitement in her voice when we speak about you. Dad is just as excited and always saying just how cute you are and how well you are doing. You are just so special, little one, with everybody praying for you and all they do when they phone or visit is ask "how is Little Warrior or our little man or our baby doing?"
You are the twinkling star in our lives.
We love you lots and lots, continue to enjoy your mamaroni juce. God Bless
Grampy, Granny, Granny Grey and uncle Brenz.

Elriza en Wes,
Ek kry skoon hoendervleis as ek julle mannetjie dophou en besef, niks is vir God onmoontlik nie.Ek kan nie wag vir die dag wat julle drietjies by ons kom kuier nie.
Ek is bly jy het Saterdag geniet, dit was die idee...
Intussen baie sterkte met die dae aftel, glo my ek tel saam... en neem vir ons 'n foto van jou mooi baba kamer sodat ons almal kan sien.

Hey Little Big man,
Here is something beautiful for you (and your lovely parents) from the pen of Kahlil Gibran.
On Children
And a woman who held a babe against her bosom said, "Speak to us of Children." And he said:
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts.
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and He bends you with His might that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
For even as he loves the arrow that flies, so He loves also the bow that is stable.
Love you Lots,
Oh-Paw
Precious child,
Today is you daddy and mommy's wedding anniversary. Oh-Paw thought he'd take it upon himself to wish the two of them all the very best for many, many years to come (I know you would've said it MUCH better, but you'll have plenty opportunity to do so in the future).
Much Love
P.S. You're looking great!
Wes & Elriza
A very happy anniversary to u both know it would have been better if the little man had been home,but there will be plenty to celebrate with him.glad he's growing so beautifully.He has already touched so many hearts.It can only get better & better.

A very happy anniversary. May you be blessed to share many more with your Little Warrior. We cannot believe that it was two years ago that we had such a wonderful time at your wedding. Looking forward to celebrating your 25th, God willing, with you.
Lots of love,
Dad, Mom, Brendon and Granny
Dear Caden,
It's nice to read about the love and gifts you've been receiving. Shows how special you are to have such loving, caring parent and family. We wish you a very strong and healthy start as you get upgraded into your new place.
Our very best wishes.
